Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 9060 trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of iconic retro style with modern, tech-inspired aesthetics. Their key benefit lies in the superior comfort and impact dispersion provided by ABZORB and SBS cushioning, making them ideal for daily wear. A potential caveat is their distinctive, exaggerated design, which may not suit minimalist preferences. This unisex model reimagines the classic 99X series with enlarged sway bars, wavy lines, and sculpted midsoles, offering a futuristic look rooted in 1970s inspiration.

FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and daily comfort. While they offer excellent cushioning, they are not intended for high-performance athletic activities like running, which require specialized footwear.
What is the "Mosaic Green Sea Salt" colourway?
This colourway features a striking vibrant green as the primary colour, accented with white details. It offers a bold and modern aesthetic.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the sizing guide and measure your foot. The unisex design means UK sizing applies. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box and the heel does not slip when walking. A snug, comfortable fit is ideal.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and appropriate cleaners is the best method.
What does 'reimagining of the brand's classic 99X series' mean?
It means the 9060 model takes inspiration from the design language and heritage of New Balance's iconic 99X line but updates it with contemporary features, materials, and a more exaggerated, futuristic aesthetic.
Is the synthetic material breathable?
Yes, the synthetic material used in the upper is designed to be lightweight and provide breathability, contributing to overall foot comfort during wear.
What is the main benefit of ABZORB and SBS cushioning?
ABZORB and SBS cushioning technologies are designed to absorb impact and provide a responsive feel, dispersing shock and enhancing comfort for extended periods of wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring they are not overtightened. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe requires a break-in period.
Discoloration on the upper
Consult the care instructions. Use a soft brush or damp cloth with minimal water. For suede, use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time
While the cushioning is designed for longevity, prolonged heavy use can gradually reduce its responsiveness. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities beyond their intended casual purpose.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers or friction. Try drying the shoes thoroughly. If the squeak persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the synthetic and suede materials, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently remove dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
- Midsole and Outsole: Wipe these parts with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
- Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a laundry bag.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
